Tartu Art Museum is a state-owned museum of art located in Tartu, Estonia. It was founded in 1940 on a private initiative by the members of local art school Pallas. This is the largest art museum in Southern Estonia. The main collection consists of works of art by Estonian and foreign artists, associated with Estonia, from the 18th century until now. The collection includes around 23 000 exhibits. The museum presents temporary exhibitions drawn from the museum's collection, and in cooperation with Estonian and foreign museums and galleries. Exhibitions are held in a historical building situated by the Town Hall Square of Tartu.

OSSA! VAU! in 2012, exhibiting the most scandalous works of Estonian art since the 1990s, and My Poland. On Recalling and Forgetting in 2015, exhibiting modern Polish art about the Holocaust. Since 2013, Tartu Art Museum has been led by Rael Artel, a former independent curator and gallerist.
